Motherhood - Gratitude And Encouragement
May 2, 2022
As we near Mother's Day, we honor the women who have been a blessing to us. Praise God for their sacrifices that they made for us! Happy Mother's Day!
Motherhood is...
... a blessing (Psalm 127:3)
Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward.
... ordained by God (Psalm 139:13)
For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb.
... full of hope (Proverbs 22:6)
Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.
... full of joy (Proverbs 23:25)
Let your father and mother be glad; let her who bore you rejoice.
... a calling (Proverbs 31:28)
Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:
... worthy of honor (Ephesians 6:1-3)
Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. 2 "Honor your father and mother" (this is the first commandment with a promise), 3 "that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land."
